    during replacement of 2.5hp LG compressor, i had to remove the EEV to create space after the workdone i fixed the EEV clockwise direction and the system couldn't discharge refrigerant
    i came across this content that helped me understood the magnetic force and i clipped the EEV in anticlockwise direction and it worked 💪 ❤❤❤

    During initialization, I think it only seats it in one direction. The manufacturer knows how many pulses it takes to get to the other end.

    Carrier had these on their flowtronic chillers. I had to replace two. They were very large, and made of brass. Pipes were 1 1/8” in and out. Ran on the same type of stepper motor, but used a lead screw to drive a slotted piston up and down. Two refrigerant circuits, 125 tons each. The chillers were an absolute service nightmare.

    Just had to replace one of these EEV's on a Daikin at tech supports direction, and at the end of replacing it i still had almost no clue what it actually was. This vid came out the next day, lol thanks for your clear presentation. I bought your 1st book, and am eager to order this one as well! These minisplits are mysterious to me, and i dont necessarily like servicing them, but they definitely seem like the "way-of-the-future", so thanks for keeping us ahead of the curve!

    Whirlpool had this they might still have it on some of their french door refrigerators but five years ago they had this and we learned about training on it and one of the instructors he mentioned there was a filament that you can put up next to it and it'll show the magnetism. It was some special filament. I forget what it's called. Great video. Your new book that I purchased arrives Tuesday looking forward to it

    Hi, glad to get in touch with you.
    I work as an air conditioning technician for Mitsubishi Heavy Industries in Spain.
    I am pleased to inform you that I have developed a small tool to check the EEV of the different air conditioning equipment. Carrying out tests on devices for domestic, industrial, VRV and Aerothermal use of the previously mentioned brand and also domestic Hisense.
    These teams mount EEV from the manufacturers FUJIKOKI, SANHUA and SAGINOMIYA. With the device, the technician can verify three points that I consider important in the diagnosis of the element:
    - If the A/C equipment pcb transmits the signals to the EEV.
    - Measures the resistance of the EEV coils.
    - Finally, it can be opened - closed automatically, or manually select the number of opening or closing pulses.
    If you find it interesting, you could expand the information you consider appropriate.
    Greetings

    320 pulses for full travel is a good resolution but if you had something a little bit less precise, there's always the method of "half steps" that you can use that's not that much more complicated. It will double your number of possible angles you can position your motor at.

    Apparently the magnet in the vent and the coils outside form a rough stepper motor. It saves a relative expensive standard stepper motor (which could as well get magnetic coupled to the inside of the vent), but provides some sort of positioning control. A little DC-motor with an incremental encoder would be more expensive and its gearbox has more wear.

  • @mikkolempinen2717

  • @marializianichols648
    @marializianichols648 Год назад

    And of course if we use pwm signals we can split steps into microsteps of 1,8 degree divided by 256 ...so the valve can control the evaporator superheat with amazing precision.

  • @hackfreehvac
    @hackfreehvac Год назад

    @9:30 many use say 1500 pulses and even into the thousands to go from full closed to full open.
    The stepper motor driver can do 1/2 step or 1/4 step down to say 1/8 etc by applying pwm varied pulses to the next pole while the first pole is still energized to clock the magnetic field between the two and then trims the first coil pwm down until it finally clock's to the next field.
    So then it an take 100+ various steps to do one rotation and have more precise control.
    On my DIY I just do full step and it takes right about 255 pulses to go from closed to open.
